Answer 1

You have downloaded a L2SP product which doesn't contain these bands anymore. See the documentation here and here (see page 12 for the content of L2SP products).

• Band 8 (PAN) is not processed for L2SP products
• Band 9 (cirrus) can be found in QA mask
• Band 11 (TIRS2) used in ST computation
